A Bathing Ape Bapesta “˜Year of the Snake”™

Bathing Ape dress up their Bapesta in snakeskin; the easy to recognize silhouette in perforated leather on the toe and some white accenting celebrates the Chinese “Year of the Snake”. Japanese fashion brands are known for their interpretations of fashion – and their versions range from the zany to the classy.

BAPE is a world-recognized Japanese streetwear brand and the Bapesta a much beloved model. Check out the two colorways, black on white and white on black. Both iterations sport white shoelaces. A worldwide release at BAPE stores on February 2. Enough time to make up your mind if these are for you.
